I'm learning my way around OS 10.3.9 on a G4 sawtooth. It came working OK with a single Maxtor 30GB drive and I screwed up the system as I tried out various things.
I picked up a similar drive,__ drive B,-- got its contents corectly updated and working. and for the moment it's sitting in the second bay and operating as an independent hard drive should. I initialized the orig drive -drive A still sitting in the main drive position -- did my thing to get both OS 9.2 and 10.39 in place -- but it's not yet working properly. I havn't made up my mind wether to keep A and B working separately. perhaps wih A perhaps operating only on OS 9.2 , or whether to combine A and B as master/slave with appropriate jumper settings. So what might those settings be ? I know that I can get hold of a 120GB drive or even bigger, but I havn't got total mastery of how to get a single drive going with the update disks I have around beginning with OS 8 and OS 9.1 etc. (Point being that I don't own a straight install CD for the G4) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
